Don't judge a book by it's cover
From the outside you may not be impressed, but once inside it's like visiting your quirky old aunt. The rooms are spacious, clean, comfortable and quiet but the overall decor is interesting. The host John is friendly and helpful and a good continental breakfast is included. The location is fantastic, walking distance to all major Wellington attractions. No problems with on street parking, just make sure you get a permit from John to display.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Richmond Guest House B&B and interacting with the owner, John. Lovely Art Deco crown molding and porcelain collectibles adorned common spaces. Breakfast offered so many choices of cereal and toppings for the toast! Location is good for walking to the city center which was great because I didn't enjoy driving in Wellington due to the narrow streets. The room had all the appliances needed for our afternoon coffee/tea and a modern private bathroom. Would recommend!

Good location
The location was ideal, not far from restaurants and centre. The breakfast was very good and the host was very amusing. We were able to park outside the accommodation and the host was looking out for us to hand over a parking permit. Please note that when parking in N Zealand you have to park the way of the traffic or you can be fined. There was a traffic warden walking down the street. The accommodation was good, clean and we had everything we needed.

We stayed 4 nights in Wellington and the stay at the Richmond was worth it. The room was clean and big enough for a family so for the price it was good value. It included a breakfast hosted by John the owner whose brusqueness may offend some of a more delicate nature but being English, we just found it amusing. The building is Victorian as is most of the properties in the area, but the dining room was like stepping back to the 50's/60's with a period radiogram playing during breakfast whilst eating at old fashioned tables etc. It was interesting. The hotel is situated relatively close to most places and during our stay we found short cuts to get to the centre and to also avoid some of the hills.

We had the big bedroom with 3 single beds, lovely ensuite, tea/coffee making, bar fridge, fan, we didn’t use the rest of the property or had breakfast as we had a big drive the next day, the breakfast room was lovely with a simple breakfast on offer, John is a good host he has a dry sense of humour however we did not have that much contact with him, good location to see the sights and John gave us a parking card to leave on our dash while parking on street. Would stay again.

It is an old property in a quiet location little away from the center but in walkable distance about 10 minutes to all restaurant and pier side. We parked our car just outside the guest house with the coupon card given by staff. Room is small with all basic material, good for short stay as we caught up early ferry next morning to South Island.
